Irrespective of the strength, non load bearing blocks shouldn't be carrying load in any case.

This is why the frame model is often the best, where load gets transferred from beams to columns and then to the foundation and blocks act as partitions.
Smart answer. I use this technique and do not compromise requirements of bearing strength and reinforcements. May be more expensive, but at least i can sleep well
In that case, you only need to worry about your foundation vis a vis geotechnical requirements.. (which also you must take care of too!)

4M for decking alone. This is a rip off. I wonder why u guys quote this outrageous prices. This decking can't eat more than 2.5M if spending is done judiciously. That's 2.5M is if the length and width of the house is big.

Car TalkRe: Engineers Don't You Think Vehicles Should Be Built With Stronger Frames? by Inception(m): 8:20pm On Jun 10, 2021
ekerensima:
Dame!! the car hits the instruction but the occupant's still moving. what else can we do about it?
It is a consequence of Newton's first law.

' An object will always remain at rest or in a state of uniform motion in a straight line unless a force is imposed on it.'

When a car hits a barrier or an obstacle at say 100km/h, that vehicle is decelerated from that speed to zero in a matter of milliseconds. The consequence is that every element on and in that vehicle will continue to move until they all hit a barrier themselves, including any occupant , luggage, even the door and boot if not properly closed will swing open in the direction the vehicle was impacted. The problem is not the stopping itself, but the time it takes to do that. , meaning that the forces any occupant would experience would be sometimes up to 5 times their weight , depending on the speed. Because of this, there must be some form of energy dissipation to , as much as possible slow down the speed of the vehicle and absorb and deflect the energy away from the occupants. This is achieved using high strength materials with adequate ductility(e.g high strength steels) to achieve this aim, together with how these materials and be configured to intelligently achieve this.

This is why wearing your seatbelt is very important, as it restrains the occupant adequately to prevent them from hitting any obstacle during such occurrence. This has improved tremendously with the advent of seatbelt pretensioners, dual stage airbags and the likes, and improvement is still going on. Remember the Presafe technology in Mercedes Benz vehicles?

One thing to also note here is that the energy required to be dissipated in an impact is a function of the square of the speed at which the vehicle was traveling. This is why someone would survive a 100km/h impact and another would die at 120km/h.

what is the size of your land.

60 x 120 or 50 x 100?

Is it waterlogged or dry land?

Do u want to use 6 inches or 9 inches?

With this little calculation below you can help yourself, if you can't, I can help u with the calculations.

The Simplest Way To Calculate The Numbers Of Blocks U Need For Your Fence


The simplest way to calculate the numbers of blocks you need for your fence project, assuming you are fencing a land measuring 120 feet by 60 ft, a standard plot

This calculation is based on 9 inches block fence .
The measurement we are using is 120 ft (length) and since we have two lengths that is multiply by 2 which is 240 ft. (120 x 2) = 240

The breadth is 60 ft and also since we have 2 breadths that equal 120 ft (60 x 2) = 120
Then (240 + 120) that is 360 feet perimeter line fencing.

The calculation

(we are to convert this 360 feet to inches ) since a foot is 12 inches , now let us multiply 12 inches by 360 ft which is 4320 inches.

Now to get the line numbers of blocks that will go around the fence perimeters of 4320 inches or 360 feet, we would need to divide 4320 by 18 inches, since the length of any block be it 6 inches or 9 inches is 18inches.

Now 4320 inches divide by 18 inches is approximately 240 line of blocks , then we must multiply that by the numbers of coaches of blocks you want for your height, assuming 7 ft which is 9 coaches that means 240 multiply by 9 which is 2160 blocks, i have been using this method for years without any mistake, and for this work, you only need 30 bags of cements, one bag of cement to 50 blocks.

for your pillars between the fence, let assume 6 blocks from one pillar to the next pillar, that means 6 divide by 240 which is 40 pillars.

40 lengths of 12mm iron rod, since one pillar is equivalent to 1 length.

3 lengths of 16mm iron rod for the 2 big pillars holding the gate.

90 planks of soft wood for the framing.

1 truck of granite (granite would be use for the wall foundation and columns or pillars )

90 tons of Sharp Sand or dagbolu.

Let me know if this help m
Nice

Speaking of Iranian economy, despite the sanctions Iran has still survived and has managed to give America sleepless nights on many occasions...

Sanctions are overhyped it could actually lead to Nigerians relying on more local industries instead of foreign ones...

Anyways sanctioning a country for
banning Twitter not for terrorist attack or building a nuclear weapon, sounds extraordinarily stupid.
Let me ask you, given the current economic travails of Nigeria and the resultant gross mismanagement of the economy & security situation, do you think we can withstand a sanction from the US for 3 months without the FG throwing in the Towel?

China banned YouTube, Twitter and Facebook, what did America do to them?
Ahhh.. Don't be unfortunate o.

Are you really trying to compare the economies of China and Nigeria? What do we produce? What do we export? Do you know how many times we have gone to beg for loans from countries that are loyal to the US just to service the 2021 budget alone? Are you even looking at our current exchange rate? A sanction on Nigeria will finish off what ever we have as pride of a Nation. One thing you don't know is that if the US sanctions Nigeria, even Saudi Arabia must comply, as Saudi is an Ally to the US. The remaining carcass of Nigeria would be torn to pieces by Communist Nations like China.
Go and see what is happening to the Iranian economy and revert.

Make una dey try reason with una brain sometimes.
